Constituents
Primary chemical constituents of Shiitake include Polysaccharide (lentinan), eritadenin, proteins, largely unsaturated fatty acids, minerals and vitamins D, B-2, B-12. Lentinan, the highly purified polysaccharide fraction extracted from Shiitake, is an approved drug in Japan and has been used as an agent to prolong survival of patients in conventional cancer therapy as well as in AIDS research. Lentinan is commercially available for clinical use. In Japan mushroom extracts have become the leading prescription treatment for cancer.
Lentinan is not only effective for cancer treatment, but may prevent the increase of chromosomal damage induced by anti-cancer drugs with no known side effects. In scientific articles Chihara stipulates: “The leading principles of the function of lentinanresides in the fact that it can cure patients by restoring their homeostasis and through enhancement of their intrinsic resistance against diseases.”
